Can LR CC Mobile read photos on SD card in USBc reader (using android tablet)?

I've plugged my camera SD card in a USBc card reader into my android tablet. I can't get LR CC mobile to see the card/display my photos. Any solutions?

You need to first import the images into whatever the Photos app is on your Android tablet. I use an iPad, so I am not sure what to call it on an Android. Bottom line is that the images have to be on the device, not the SD card before Lr CC mobile can see them. After you import the images from the device into Lightroom, and everything shows as fully synced to the cloud, you can delete the images from the device.

Thanks. I'm looking for an app that'll read on the SD card. I don't want to download pix, just view them on the card.

The Photos app on an iPad will view the images on a card. I’m surprised your Android won’t do the same with a built in app.

I´ve been using ES filewiever wich has worked for me... quite a bit fiddly though.
